Headquarters Lower Floor

Grab the Drum Can in the room down the corridor and a Gekko will march right out of the other doorway. Hit it hard with a fully charged Avalanche as usual. The UG's cyborg buddies will soon join the fray for you to Zandatsu when needed. Destroy the gun camera in the next room and proceed.

Endurance Plus 004

Before boarding the freight elevator, enter the room to the right. You'll find this upgrade inside the Blade Mode box at the end of the path.

Picking up the upgrade calls forth a pair of riot shield Cyborgs plus a Slider. Kill them and explore the elevator perimeter for a Repair Nanopaste and Grenade. Activate the panel for the lift to get it going. Defeat the wave enemies on the way up; the reinforcements will include a Raptor which you can Taunt, but only if the other baddies are dead.

Data Storage 002

Once the elevator stops jump on the containers to the next lift then look behind the top right pile of containers to find this collectible.

At the top, ignore the control panel for the shutter door and collect all the freebies first. These items will respawn after you complete the VR Mission.

VR Mission Computer 002

At the very top of the elevator shaft, do not open the shutter door yet. Instead, turn toward the left after you slice open the brown box (Repair Nanopaste) to spot this terminal on the floor in front of you.

This mission takes place on an open platform floating over a bottomless pit. Use the environment to your advantage and knock the rocket cyborgs off the edges with charged heavy attacks. Stiff Breeze (heavy attack mid-dash) is a good combo to do this with. Alternatively, you can try giving them a taste of their own medicine and blow them off the edge with the RPG. Next in line is a Heavily Armed Cyborg and Sliders. The flyers shoot rockets so priority goes to them, saving the hammer cyborg for last.

BOSS BATTLE - METAL GEAR RAY

Ray starts the battle by firing off a couple of beam attacks which are evaded by either dashing or jumping over both. Try to stay under Ray's midsection at all times throughout the encounter so that the only thing you need to worry about is getting stomped on. Attack the legs or the head.

Keep damaging it to certain levels to trigger a series of Blade Mode sequences that strip Ray of its armor so you deal more damage. Follow through with the pattern until you get its health down to about 10%. This initiates the final Blade Mode sequence. Slice the machine to pieces.

Fuel Cell Plus 003

In the Metal Gear Ray hangar, there is a black and yellow striped platform directly underneath the exit door catwalk. On top of the striped platform is a Blade Mode box with this upgrade.

VR Mission Computer 003

After getting the Fuel Cell, cross to the other side of the hangar and climb the stairs. From this catwalk, jump on the tall pile of bound silver crates and look up to see another catwalk. Double jump then air dash to reach that one, where the VR Mission terminal is waiting.

This VR mission pits you against a Raptor and a pair of Mastiffs. The energy field from the former can actually stun the latter so it would be great if you can tempt the Raptor to use its energy field when the Mastiffs are nearby. Feel free to use EM Grenades if you have them. Otherwise, stick with fully charged Avalanche strikes. This is a boring tactic no doubt but it's also one of the safest. You are dealing with Mastiffs after all.

Endurance Plus 005

The Blade Mode box that houses this upgrade appears on the catwalk you're on once VR Mission 003 is completed.

Data Storage 003

Return to the edge of the VR Computer catwalk and look up to see a duct above you. Jump onto it then to the next one above that. Now straight ahead is a row of 4 fans. Use these to get across over to the end, where this collectible is resting on another platform above.

Head for the exit door now. There is a small fence blocking your way to the catwalk. Jump toward it then cut through using Blade Mode.

Endurance Plus 006

Once you get to the door leading to the hangar exit, look up, jump to the ledge above you and then onto the nearby catwalk. The Blade Mode box containing this power up is on that distant catwalk straight ahead. To reach it, dash then double jump off the catwalk to gain extra distance then air dash over to the target area.
